Pads are used extensively for controlling, cleaning up and recovering oil and petroleum-based liquids. Conveniently sized pads allow the user to quickly spread sorbent over and in the path of a spill. Pads may also be used on a work surface in anticipation of a spill or as a wipe. High-capacity sorbents have a scrim on one side to increase strength and help eliminate linting. Standard pads (200 count) absorb 43 1/2 gallons per bale, high-capacity pads (50 count and 100 count) absorb 33, 37 1/2 gallons per bale respectively. **PE** S-1 Sorbents Warning
